 Terry Crews’ Wife Rebecca Reveals Parkinson’s Battle 11 Years After Diagnosis: ‘Seeing Improvement’ Terry Crews and his wife, Rebecca King-Crews, have opened up about a deeply personal health journey that the family has been quietly navigating for more than a decade. During Monday’s episode of the Today show, Rebecca, 60, revealed that she has been living with Parkinson’s since receiving her diagnosis in 2015, though the first warning signs appeared years earlier. Looking back, she said it all began around 2012 with a slight numbness in her left foot. Not long after, her trainer noticed something unusual in the way she walked, particularly that one of her arms was no longer swinging naturally. Then came the moment that truly raised alarm. Rebecca recalled waking up one morning to find her hand shaking, a tremor that made it clear something more serious might be happening. At first, she said a doctor suggested it was anxiety and reassured her that she would be fine. Still, trusting...

Big Tech ramps up living room rivalry as Instagram launches Reels app for TVs 

The battle for the future of television is intensifying, and Meta is making its move.

The company announced the launch of an Instagram Reels app for connected TVs, starting with Amazon Fire TV devices. The app aims to bring Reels directly to the living room, allowing users to watch short-form videos on a larger screen alongside friends and family. Tessa Lyons, Instagram’s VP of product, explained that research showed people were already mirroring their phones to TVs to view Reels, signaling a demand for a dedicated TV experience. The new app is designed to make that experience seamless, with features like Blend, which lets users combine their algorithms with those of friends or family for co-viewing, and support for channels and categories for easier content discovery.

The move represents a significant shift in the entertainment and digital advertising landscape. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg reported that Reels now has an annual ad revenue run rate of $50 billion, surpassing the combined ad revenue of Warner Bros. Discovery, Paramount, and NBCUniversal. Until now, Reels achieved this without a dedicated TV app. Instagram’s TV app also considers the reality that viewers often use their phones while watching TV, offering a bridge between mobile and big-screen experiences. Lyons emphasized that the app is a first step, with further improvements expected based on user feedback.

The TV app includes algorithmically curated and user-selected channels, creating personalized programming around specific interests. Users can follow channels for shows like “Pluribus” or Star Wars, accessing related content from creators and engaging with short-form videos tied to their favorite topics. Lyons noted the app could also support the rise of microdrama content, typically one- to three-minute videos, by aggregating content around specific creators or interests.

The launch adds another layer of competition to the streaming and broadcast ecosystem, already experiencing consolidation with Netflix’s acquisition of Warner Bros. Media executives are likely to watch closely as Instagram’s TV presence could increase pressure on traditional linear TV and premium streaming platforms, further intensifying the competition for viewers’ attention in the living room.
